UPDATED DECEMBER 2023. Here at Get Away Today we love exploring all Walt Disney World has to offer. From four headlining theme parks, two splash-tastic water parks, an entertainment district and more than 25 Walt Disney World Resort hotels, we have done it all!

Today, we’re taking a closer look at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge.

Walt Disney World groups their onsite hotels into four categories:

1. Deluxe Villa
2. Deluxe Resort
3. Moderate Resort
4. Value Resort

This is one of Walt Disney World’s deluxe properties, which means you can expect a theming and experience unlike any other. While Deluxe Resort hotels do have a higher price tag, they usually come with amenities that warrant the higher number.

Other Deluxe resorts at Walt Disney World include:

• Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge (close to Disney’s Animal Kingdom)
• Disney’s Beach Club Resort (close to EPCOT and Disney’s Hollywood Studios)
• Disney’s BoardWalk Inn & Villas (close to EPCOT)
• Disney’s Contemporary Resort (close to Magic Kingdom)
• Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa (close to Magic Kingdom)
• Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort (close to Magic Kingdom)

Experience your own piece of the wild wilderness with a touch of Disney magic. Book your next Orlando vacation at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge!

For a stay at this rejuvenating retreat we recommend staying at least 5 nights, with 4-day Park Hopper tickets. This will give you time to not only enjoy your resort amenities but also allows you to experience one day at each of the main theme parks. If you have less time, we recommend considering a Park Hopper ticket so you can still experience all four parks.

A specialist can help you book available experiences, dining and the perfect Disney resort hotel room for your vacation, including a stay at Wilderness Lodge. Check out our Walt Disney World vacation packages online or call an agent at 855-GET-AWAY.
